Originally produced in 2007
The film, a biography and history of the times documents KG Kannbiran's remarkable contribution to civil liberties and human rights in India. Focusing his energies and acumen on interpreting the rule of law and constitutionalism in a secular democracy, KG Kannabiran's contribution to the crafting of insurgent jurisprudence remains unparalled. As a founding member of the concerned citizen’s committee, he was on of the state government and Maoists to the negotiating table in 2004. The documentary begins with Kannabiran’s role in peace talks with the Naxal groups and the government in Guntur, Andhra Pradesh. It chronicles his deep involvement, as a human rights defender, in the 1967-70’s communist peasants struggle to reclaim tribal rights. He challenged various human rights violations in court and through various government channels. According to him, the Constitution does not confer fundamental rights, instead, it confirms the fundamental rights which are inherent to human beings.
